* Do you experience conflict in your family? In your family business interactions? Do you know of a family that does not?
* Conflict is a clash of interests, values, actions, views or directions. Conflicts can be defused and even resolved. Do you know how to begin?
* Forgiveness is the conscious and deliberate decision to release resentment or anger. Where a break in the lines of communication has already occurred, forgiveness may be the only path forward.
* Luckily, granting forgiveness is something we can learn to do and we get better at it with practice. Have you considered forgiving someone to allow your legacy to live on after you are gone?

Ranch and farm families should have their own experts—a team of experts—made up of individuals, organizations, and businesses that possess important skills or information to help agricultural producers at needed times.

Why have a team of experts? A well-chosen and helpful team may make an agricultural producer more successful and is another way of dealing with stress.

The last few years have been difficult for farm and ranch families. Many are experiencing financial and emotional stress as a result. There are several signs or symptoms when a farm family may be in need of help. These are signs that can be observed by friends, extended family members, neighbors, milk haulers, veterinarians, clergy persons, school personnel, or health and human services workers.

When family members, friends or neighbors are exhibiting signs of stress and depression, it is important they be connected with help as soon as possible. All cries for help should be taken seriously.

Roger holds down a job in town to supplement income from the family ranch. He is up before everyone else in the house on most days, and his schedule and lack of adequate sleep often have him feeling as if he does morning chores in a stupor. Although he is able to recognize stress signals, Roger sometimes feels powerless to address them. “There just isn’t any extra time in my day,” he says.

Practicing relaxation may seem too time-consuming or even like a waste of time for many ranchers and farmers. But in the overall scheme of things, the benefits will make you more effective throughout each day.

Rushing to town to buy spare parts, watching hay supplies dwindle during an unusually cold winter, helping a heifer live through a complicated birth—these images of agricultural life can be as familiar to producers as those of joyful times on the family land. That said, it may be hard to imagine the need for a resource that helps to identify and control stress on the ranch or farm. For many agricultural producers, however, these and other situations are so much a part of routine living that they are not readily identified as stressful.

Simply hiding the effects of stress is not always the best choice. It is much healthier to identify stress and find constructive ways to deal with it.
